TARZANA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/09/12 -- In response to market demand for a simpler, less expensive way to manage Cloud apps, InfoStreet, Inc. has announced their Cloud 2.0 Suite: SkyDesktop, a free Cloud-based desktop where all your apps and files live; SkyAppMarket, a marketplace dedicated to the best of breed, affordable Cloud apps; and SkySingleSignOn, a login management system that frees users from having to manage multiple logins and passwords.

With SkyDesktop, users will have a familiar environment (similar to the computer at their desk) yet fully managed completely in the Cloud and accessible from anywhere, at anytime, using any device.

SkyAppMarket is a Cloud app marketplace where small businesses can find the Cloud apps best suited for their organization. All apps are paid in one monthly bill, and businesses have full control of which apps are available to what employees.

All of the apps offered in SkyAppMarket are integrated with SkySingleSignOn, allowing users to access every app they have just by logging in to their SkyDesktop.

"With so many ways to access the Internet, it is no longer relevant how you reach the Internet," explains Siamak Farah, CEO of InfoStreet. "What really matters are the files and apps you need to access in order to get the job done. Users also want to have the same efficient experience regardless of how they reach their apps. This is precisely why we are proud to unveil our Cloud 2.0 Suite, providing users with all the benefits of the Cloud in one centralized location."

As part of InfoStreet's Cloud 2.0-focused rollout, several Cloud apps are being offered in the SkyAppMarket at launch, a complete list of which can be seen at https://www.InfoStreet.com/SkyAppMarket. Additional apps are in line to be released to SkyAppMarket each month. InfoStreet has provided a sneak preview of those Cloud apps at https://www.InfoStreet.com/coming-soon. Every app in the SkyAppMarket will be supported by InfoStreet's staff and equipped with SkySingleSignOn, giving users the pure Cloud 2.0 experience they have been longing for.

"Imagine one location for all your files, one trusted source to find Cloud apps, one bill to pay, and only one support contact," said Farah. "Now, this has become a reality. SkyDesktop brings you all that at no extra cost".
